Scripted by Dolan and Michel Marc Bouchard, the Canadian French-language film centres on Tom, who “is in the grip of grief following the death of his lover. When he meets the family of the deceased, he learns the mother was not aware of her son’s sexual orientation or of his relationship with Tom.”

Production is expected to kick off this week in Montreal with Dolan, Charles Gillibert and Nathanael Karmitz producing.
